The University of Louisiana at Lafayette’s College of Engineering broke ground Tuesday for its new Engineering Student-Centered Collaborative Building. Once completed, the nearly 65,000-square-foot, state-of-the-art facility will be home to the newly established Engineering Center of Excellence, or ECoE.
Designed to foster teamwork, creativity and student success, the building and accompanying ECoE “are significant milestones in our commitment to reimagining and advancing engineering education, research and workforce development,” said Dr. Joseph Savoie, UL Lafayette president.

PINEVILLE, La. – The Louisiana National Guard’s 415th Military Intelligence Battalion (Interrogation) welcomed its new command team, Battalion Commander Lt. Col. Barrett Lancon and Battalion Command Sgt. Maj. Jon Mount, during an official change of command and change of responsibility ceremony at Gillis W. Long Center in Carville, July 20.

Audience member Ben Langlinais asked the million-dollar question at Tuesday’s Vermilion and Iberia Parish Railroad Development District Board and Commissioners meeting.
Langlinais, who lives next to the railroad track, stood up in the crowd and asked, “My question is, where is this [opinions against Rails to Trails] headed? Is it going to stay in this room?”
